While some fans loved this unabashed display of French camp and kitsch, others — particularly those who espouse conservative or Christian beliefs — were not happy with it.
If you can’t figure out to not take someone belief system or identity and use it… If you can’t figure out why that might piss people off let me help you.
If I as a heterosexual white male put on black face and dressed up in American Indian garb I’m pretty sure people would get pissed.
The ceremony pissed off right wingers by not bending to their demands for censorship of anything that their religious beliefs tells them should be censored. Bending to those demands would essentially allow them to force their religious beliefs on others.
You suggested to piss off left wingers by bullying ostracized groups of people or being downright racist.
Everything you listed is on different plains of existence.
The left isn’t there to tell others what to do. It’s here to push back on the right’s encroachment. So be it.
Neither black nor trans people choose to be who they are but being a right-wing Christian is a conscious choice people make every day. These people wake up and choose every type of violence.
Why would it be ok to piss off anyone else but the perpetrators?
Again with this paradox of tolerance bullshit. Just try think about the two situations and how they are similar and different… You’ll figure it out, I believe in you.
Is mocking a person for being autistic the same as mocking someone for choosing to be a white supremacist?
If they did it to Muslims, theyd get a repeat of Charlie Hebdo. And if I didnt know better, Id say they were making fun of trans people, in a really gross transphobic way
I’m not exactly the most religious person, but this seems to be step one in how to piss off a nice chunk of those watching.
Not the route I would have gone.
Drag cabaret was huge in France in the 1940s and 1950s and has continued to this day, so that part is not really especially weird or or provocative.
But then they decided to mix it with Paris Fashion Week and that made it far less interesting, at least to me.
Well they can be pissed or grow up then I guess lol getting angry over a performance on tv, what are they, 6 years old?
Mentally, yes. Lol

There are certain lines you just don’t cross.
Mocking someone for who they are (their race) and for their choice (the cult they joined) are entirely different things.
And religion, favorite Jolly Rancher flavor, or what car you drive is not one of them. Those are all conscious choices.
Still here you are trying to piss off people. Why don’t you change your tune, eh?
Have you still not figured out that it wasn’t even The Last Supper? The painting they were reenacting had zero to do with Christianity.
It was made to kind of piss right wing people, yes
Just curious would it have been ok if was designed to piss off left wingers? Or done to make fun of black people or trans people?

You can see how those are not the same.

Do you get it yet?
If they did it to Muslims, theyd get a repeat of Charlie Hebdo. And if I didnt know better, Id say they were making fun of trans people, in a really gross transphobic way
Because some of them are even more childish than the christians?
Do you know what Charlie Hebdo was?
You can’t live your life walking on eggshells because you’re worried you might offend one of the biggest snowflakes to ever exist
